Re: Whatever happened to Starship Exeter?

The fan film set has not been built that wouldn't be laughed off of the big screen, sorry - no matter how cool the retro graphics are.

Fans already buy into TOS, so of course they'll be pleased if the old designs are rendered well. Trek fans are not anyone's target audience at the multiplex, so the assessment that these things "wouldn't stand up" is the correct one.
